Windows 10: Proxy settings by Admin user to other users get automatically reset

For EC2 Windows server creation, I have to write everything in powershell userdata script. So I have the command to set proxy:Set-ItemProperty -Path $regKey -Name ProxyServer -Value ...Set-ItemProperty -Path $regKey -Name ProxyEnable -Value ...I can see the values in registry as well after the above commands are run. But as soon something get triggered that will use that proxy for that user, it will automatically reset to something like ProxyEnable as 0 and deletes ProxyServer key.But after the set up, if I just login with the user for which proxy was set and open Internet Explorer once not

proxy settings..

Hi,

Issues with the proxy settings are usually caused by broken system components. For us to provide an accurate solution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Which build and edition of Windows is installed on your computer?
• What changes have you made to the registry? Kindly provide us a screenshot of the changes that you made.
  
• To avoid redundancy, what are the troubleshooting steps that you've already performed?
  

In the meantime, we suggest that you create a test user profile. Check if you will have the same issue with proxy settings. This is for us to verify if the issue is isolated with one user profile or with multiple accounts.

To create a test user profile, follow these steps:

• Using Cortana search, type Settings and then hit the Enter key.
• In the Settings window, select Accounts.
• Select Family & other people.
• Choose Add someone else to this PC.
• Click I don't have this person's sign-in information.
• Click Add a user without a Microsoft account.
• Name the user as TEST and then provide a password.

We are looking forward to your response.

Windows could not automatically detect this network’s proxy settings

@Compumind @Samuria

Hi - Just so you know, I'm marking this "problem solved". I found this online How to Solve the Windows Could Not Automatically Detect Network Proxy Settings Error. Doing the last step under #2 is what solved the problem. McAvee is still scanning incoming. McAvee & Malwarebytes still show no problems with a full scan. Thanks for your help and suggestions.
